Turn (Jonah 3)

The third chapter begins the way the first chapter began. The word of the Lord came to Jonah telling him to go to Ninevah and preach against the city. The first time Jonah heard those words, Jonah decided to quit his prophetic call, board a ship, and go to a place where God’s people were not living. God comes to Jonah a second time and essentially says, “Let’s try this again.” This time Jonah goes.
